Keyboard Shortcuts (Hot Keys)
You can accomplish many actions in the Console by using the default keyboard shortcuts or hot keys, instead of menus and mouse navigation. The standard keyboard shortcuts and their associated actions is listed in the table below.
Tip: You can view the default keyboard shortcut schemas and set up custom shortcuts on the Hot Key tab in the Console Preferences dialog (Console menu option Edit > Preferences, click Manage Hot Keys). For information on how to view or configure Console keyboard shortcuts, see Managing Hot Keys.
